Are the bows and cover for a 101A2 and a 105 trailer the same? Do any of the parts interchange or they two totally different animals? I just picked up a 101A2 to go behind my 1031 and need to get up to speed on the trailers.

Does anyone happen to have one of the military M1031 contact maintenance trucks? I have an 86 with the PTO driven generator. This thing is supposed to be set up to stick weld with a cable from the generator control panel.
I need to make a set of cables so I can have the weld capability. If...
I need a picture of the transfer case shifter boot and housing for an NP205 transfer case. I know these were in the M1031 and I think they were in the M1028. There's a shifter boot and housing on mine, but it's not bolted to the floor and appears to be the same as was used on the NP208. I...
Are bench seat covers that came from the factory for the CUCVs still available anywhere? The seat bottom is torn on the passenger side in my 1031. I'd like to get it replaced before the foam is damaged.

I know we used to be able to weld with the Shop set on our 887. Does the PTO driven generator mounted on the 1031 still have a welding capability?

What has everyone done about their volt meter after they converted to a full 12 volt system? Is there a 12 volt version that hooks into the existing connector?

Thinking about converting my 1986 M1031 over to a 12 volt starter. Is the 28MT the correct starter for this conversion? I found one on Ebay, but it only goes back to a 1989. I figure I can double my CCA if I go with a 12 volt starter.
Does anyone happen to have a link to the process for this...
I need some help locating a switch for my 1031 contact truck. Here's the info from the plate on the door:
PTO Magnetic Switch, P/O 11023716
Identified as MS1 in my wiring schematic
This switch looks like a magnetic pickup to me. It's mounted in the shift housing of the PTO and sends the PTO...
Does anyone happen to know where I might be able to download or find hard copies of technical manuals for the shop set (4940-01-209-8825) mounted on my M1031? I believe the manuals are:
TM 9-4940-562-23P
TM 9-4940-562-13

I finished replacing the fusible links in the harness. I grabbed both of the batteries out of my Blazer and hooked them up in the 1031. I found that there was power to the light circuit, but there was no power to the ignition circuit. After making repairs to a couple of connections in the...
Looks like I have a leaking rear main seal on my 6.2 :roll: . I know this was a big problem with these engines when they first came out. Have there been any improvements in the seals or new replacement process that I should be aware of prior to starting the repair? This is one of those jobs...
Anyone have any idea where I might get a welding cable to fit the panel in a Shop Equipment set mounted on a Contact Maintenance truck? I don't even have any idea where to start looking for something like this.

I have a burnt fusible link on a wire attached to the engine wiring harness block. The fusible link was blue and the wire is red. The splice between the fusible link and the wire has a number "2" on it. Is this number the wire number?
